AbsenceIf your child is absent from school for any reason please telephone the office and then send a note on their return to explain the absence. Any ‘unofficial’ absence (i.e. unexplained absences) and/or frequent lateness must be reported to the Education Welfare Officer and may result in a visit from him/her. Before requesting any leave from school, please consider that any disruption or change to your child’s learning routine can have a significant impact on attainment. Please also bear in mind that absence from school does make a significant impact on the capacity to achieve.
Please complete a "request for authorised absence of pupil " form if you wish to request any leave from school and forward it to the Headteacher before the period of absence. The form must include details of why the absence is being requested in term time rather than in the school holidays. The form can be dowloaded below or picked up from opposite the school office window.
